Former national chief selector and ex-wicketkeeper-batter Kiran More, who played an important role the last time an Indian team avoided defeat in a Test at Birmingham in 1986, reckons it’s a new beginning for Indian cricket after Shubman Gill & Co dominated England for five whole days to win the second Test by a record 336 runs at Edgbaston on Sunday.

More made his Test debut against Mike Gatting’s England at Lord’s in that three-match series 39 years ago.

At Edgbaston, he scored a crucial 48 and 31 not out besides grabbing four catches behind the stumps as India registered a famous draw at the venue where they had always lost previously. India went on to win the three-Test series 2-0 in dramatic fashion.
